Skepticality TAM5, Mythbusters Adam, Lori Lippman and Benjamin Bradford.

A good show, always fun to hear Adam.

But the last half had a high frequent whine that gave me a head ache.

Still a good show.

I was really hoping to like this podcast but it has consistently disappointed, and finally I just unsubscribed. Too much mindless chatter and the hosts aren't very knowledgeable. It tries too hard to be cute. But maybe it's a good way to hook teenaged free thinkers...

Curnir, it is damn near impossible to get clean, buzz or noise or whine free recordings at a conference the size of TAM.

I know, the background noice doesn't bother me, it's the high pitched whine that gave me the headache.

I think they would have removed it if they could. And as I said, it is a good episode.

I don't know to what extent they tried to remove it, but it can be tricky removing those types ot buzzes and whines in recordings.




[Friendly joke]

I don't remember those types of noises in the TAM 4 interviews....

Hmm.


(MUCH LOVE SKEPTICALITY! )

Uh, there's not much chatter on skepticality... you might be getting it confused with some other podcast.

Skepticality doesn't update very often, but it's worth the wait. Both Swoopy and Derek do excellent interviews (check out the archives).

Chatter?

On OUR show?

Strange since... we both feel that we now have NONE! Not even a peep for at least the past 20 or so episodes...
